Between a laugh and a tear...

Lured out of the darkness by that distant light
Ensnared, opened and exposed by the alluring flame
Blinded by that searing light of realization
Destined forever to wander in the darkness
Through the caverns of those distant memories
Into the void of loneliness and despair
To feel the pain and desolation once again
For it is there that I now know I belong
Embraced by the demons of my soul

~Eagle,...I remember once you told me to 'Ramble On',...do the same, you do it well. I love a breath of open, honest thoughts just poured out. Your words left feelings of cold and I extend my hand again as Oh can I relate to the scenario you described. I may not know why you have these feelings, but the way in which you set them up it seems I have felt similar. Expressed well here E. Do take care. *Peace.

A ramble after my own heart! I've a feeling you speak for many here, as personal as it may be.

Destined forever to wander in the darkness
Through the caverns of those distant memories


That, is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!

I believe there is another word for this..

"Free association writing", am I correct.  It seems that if this is just a random rambling, then you've much to learn from it.  In any case, this is quite a good poem.  It sort of reminds me of the internal strife that often goes on in the mind of one who still has sins that need to be forgiven and a heart that still needs healing and reconciliation...

SpitFire......yes I do recall saying that  . It sadens me some to know you can relate to these feelings, also comforts me in knowing that I'm never really alone. Thankyou my friend, take care!

Christopher......I too am sure that many here among us know well of these feelings

fractal007.....I don't know about the writing, I just write my feelings however they flow out. I'd say your assesment of the feelings was spot on.

our demons are always there. It is best to expose them

Hey Eddie, will you teach me to ramble like that?
Whatever your troubles, I know that there are many supportive people here. You would never be completely alone. I hope there's a light at the end of the tunnel soon.

I wish you every happiness and pray you'll always have the best of the good things in life. a brand

Paula.....We all have a dark side, I think in a constant state of to and fro with the light.


Ron...I think that perhaps some demons are best left burried. Thanks for your comments.


Dee....Nothing to teach here, sometimes it all just flows out! The light is there, just it seems soooo far away sometimes.   and yes, there is much support in this wonderful place and I thank you for yours. Take care!

Sandra...I hope you find your light soon. I ramble far too much I think, take care

Victoria...."Best to be blinded by truth than lies" Having thought about that for a while I would have to say I agree, thanks for sharing your thoughts.
